Waco to Fredericksburg

Well, it’s time to leave Waco.  We got on the road about 9:30 this morning and I prepared to take some going-down-the-road pictures.

The wind was gusting 20-30 miles per hour.100_4121

Our first view of the Texas Hill Country.100_4122

I just love the country.100_4123

This stretch of highway shows why it’s call the Hill Country.100_4128

One big longhorn.100_4134

How odd.  A huge bed frame made from local wood, I’m sure, out in the pasture near the highway.  I suppose it’s and advertisement, but the sign appears to be face down on the ground.  The bed was pretty, though.100_4135

Found a barn to capture.100_4136

A thoroughbred horse ranch.100_4138

Always a pretty scene to me.100_4139

We have arrived in Fredericksburg.100_4140

What a shame.  This house is empty.100_4141

You know I like old wood sheds and barns.100_4142

We ate a late lunch at Wheeler’s, made a stop at Wal-mart for few needed items and back to the Q.

We hope your Monday has been marvelous.

Please say a prayer for Judy Long, (John & Judy are chaplains at Amazon.com in Coffeyville, Kansas) as she is in the hospital.  John reports that she’s making progress and for that we are thankful.
